Resume & Cover Letter Writing

What is a Resume? • A resume is a summary of your experiences and skills relevant to the field of work you are entering. • A resume is an accomplishment driven marketing tool for individuals seeking employment. • A resume relates your experience to your career objective.

What is the Purpose of a Resume? • The goal of any good resume is to show that you are a qualified candidate and a good match for the job. • The resume motivates employers to interview you. • Remember! Most employers spend 10 – 20 seconds scanning a resume. Keep your resume to 1 page!

PREPARATION • Know Yourself • Know the Position

Know Yourself Ask yourself… • How can I target my resume to the company I am applying for? Next… • Prepare an inventory of your skills, accomplishments, education, goals, and experience.

Know the Position Do the research and tailor your resume to the position you are applying for. The following is a list of what you should know: • Necessary Skills. • Desired Qualifications. • Required Education and Work Experience. • Key Values. • Job Duties.

TYPES OF RESUMES • Reverse Chronological Resumes • Functional Resumes • Targeted Resumes • Combination Resumes

Reverse Chronological Resumes • This is the standard format most preferred by employers. • It is date-oriented, provides a history education and experience, and lists most recent experience first. • This type of resume highlights consistent work record. • This type of resume illustrates experiences within job titles.

FORMAT • Heading • Objective • Summary of Qualifications • Education • Experience

Employee Profile • Name: Anita Job • Recent Graduate • Degree: Associates in Computer Applications & Office Technology • Option: Medical Office Assistant Hi my name is Anita.

Heading • The heading is placed at the top of the page and aligned at the center. • Your name appears on the first line and should be in bold. • The heading includes the following contact information: Address, Phone Number, and Email (Use an appropriate and professional email address!)

Name is in bold and on the first line. Heading includes address and phone number. Email address is professional and appropriate. Do not use emails like “[email protected]!” Anita Job 1111 Figueroa Place, Wilmington, CA, 90744 555-555-5555 [email protected]

Objective • The objective should consist of 1 -2 short sentences. • The objective specifies the type of position you are seeking. • Tailor your objective to the company. • Do not use generalized statements or “flowery language.” • Do not focus only on what the company can do for you.

For Example Try… “To gain a position where I can be an asset to my employer and grow as an individual.” “To gain a position as a Medical Secretary at Kaiser Permanente.” Instead of…

Alternatives to the Objective Statement You could use a title next to your name or at the top of your resume. Examples: • Medical Office Assistant • Marketing Professional • Ultrasound Technician • Registered Nurse

Summary of Qualifications • This is optional. (Use a qualification summary only if it puts emphasis or links your background that is most relevant to the job requirements.) • Use 3 – 6 bullet points of special accomplishments, key work skills, outstanding traits, relevant work history. • Highlight skills that aren’t obvious from past work experience.

Qualifications are relevant to the position sought. Section Heading is in bold • Summaryof Qualifications • Knowledge of medical terminology • Knowledge of Accounts payable software, Accounts receivable software, Billing software, and Intuit QuickBooks software • Bilingual English-Spanish Summary includes three bulleted qualifications.

Emphasize vs. Minimize • Emphasize relevant experience and minimize irrelevant experience. • You can distinguish between relevant experience and additional experience. • List your accomplishments, not just responsibilities. (For example mention ideas you had that may have improved your workplace.) • Use vocabulary or keywords from your chosen field.

Quantifying your Experience Quantify your actions whenever possible. For example: • If you were a supervisor how many people did you supervise? • If you gave regular reports how often? • If you improved sales by how much?

Expand on Your Skills Look for ways to demonstrate such qualities as the following: • Good communication Skills • Leadership and Organizational Skills • Ability to work on a team • Good Work Ethic • Interpersonal Skills

Disguising a Period of Unemployment 1. Include only years, not months. For example: 11/06 – 4/09, Night Manager, Taco Bell, Woodmont, NY3/04 – 2/06, Day Manager, Denny’s Restaurant, Milpitas, CA  If you use only years and eliminate the months, there is no apparent gap: 2006-2009, Night Manager, Taco Bell, Woodmont, NY2004-2006, Day Manager, Denny’s Restaurant, Milpitas, CA 2. Explain the gap. For Example: Consider everything you were doing during that time and if possible, present them in a way that is relevant to your job objective. 2007-2009, Primary Home Care Provider for terminally ill relative 2003-2008, Parent and Classroom Volunteer, Brio High School -Susan Ireland’s Resume Site

…continued 3. Be honest and maintain dignity. In general, references to illness, unemployment, and rehabilitation immediately raise red flags, so avoid those at all cost. Instead, write about something else that you were doing during that time. Following are some suggested “job titles” for such gaps: Full-time StudentIndependent StudyFull-time ParentFamily Management (or Home Management)Family Financial Management (or Estate Management)Adventure Travel (or Travels to …)Personal Travel 4. Unpaid experience. If you include unpaid experience in your work history, be sure to use the title of Work History or History for this section, rather than Professional Experience or Employment History -Susan Ireland’s Resume Site

Cover Letter & Resume

Be Prepared for Your Job Interview

Cover Letter vs. Resume

The Cover Letter and the resume work together.

The Cover Letter explains specifics of why you are applying for this position, how you heard about it, and relevant education and experience in your own words.

The Resume is a “summary” of all your skills, abilities, work experience, education, and achievements.

Your job is to design them BOTH how you want them to look like. Following just a few guidelines…

Cover Letter

Find a job on Indeed that does not require a college degree. Something that you might be interested in. The job does not have to be in California. Write your cover letter based upon this job you have chosen.

Make sure you add the link from Indeed at the bottom of your cover letter.

Cover Letter ( letter of introduction)

Your Address

City, State, and Zip

Your Potential Employer’s Name

Professional Title

Organization Name

Mailing Address

Dear Mrs./Mr./Ms. Last Name,

Begin your letter with an attention grabber- a statement that establishes a connection

with your reader, probing question, or a quotable quote. Briefly say what job you are applying for.

To Be Continued…

Introduction

Cover Letter- (continued)

2 nd paragraph AKA: Mid-section

This should be only one or two short paragraphs that make relevant points about your qualifications. You should not summarize your resume. You may include a column or bullet point formats here.

Last paragraph:

Should initiate action by explaining what you will do next. (for example, call the employer) or initiate the reader to contact you to set up an interview. Close by saying “thank you.”

Your Handwritten Signature

Your Name Typed

*Summary: you may add a summary or explanation of intent. Not necessary for this assignment due to the content of your cover letter.

Personal- You do not need to explain your age, sex, race, marital status, family size on your resume. You may include accomplishments or experiences related with your job objective.

Now it’s your turn…

Make your own Cover Letter and Resume.

Find a current position open within Sports Medicine (does not have to be in Fresno/Clovis area). Customize your cover letter to the job described. Please attach the job posting at the bottom of your letter.
